That would work, and it keeps the logic in one place without a new cb field, but I don't think it's better than the current approach. It would need skb_unclone() before writing skb_shinfo(), and a repeat of the if (partial_segs) logic from skb_segment(). For DF=0 we would also have to recompute ip.id in validate_xmit_skb(), or keep that case on the existing full-segmentation path. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
